Dental Implant failure Video

Implant surgery is not perfect, and implant failures due to surgery will occur. While many issues may affect implant success, patient selection is important. Screening should include psychological makeup, medical and dental conditions, and behavioral issues such as smoking and alcohol usage. Adequate diagnosis of bone and soft tissue quality and quantity is equally important. In this regard, we believe cone beam technology is the best way and may soon become the standard of care.

Although the success rate of dental implant is very high, there are about 10% of failure in all dental implantation. The cause is usually related to the bone quality of the implant site. Once the implant failed, it can be easily removed, wait for 6 weeks and re-implant again. It is easier to remove a failed implant than a natural tooth.
